Issues with the battery life :(

[RobinJ1995]

Hi Robin. It looks like it has been a long time since you've had this problem. Can you confirm that it has been resolved? Thanks in advance. Regards. Ps: Actively using 5T

Nope... I've just resorted to always carrying a power bank around and running the "device optimisation" from the settings every time the device starts lagging to the point that the touch screen is barely useable (i.e. multiple times a day).

Needless to say, I'll never be buying a Samsung device again. Sending out Snapdragon review units but selling barely functional Exynos devices should get them sued imo.

I have some observation after 1 month:

1) Bad gsm signal kills battery very quickly. Moreover, using gsm internet consume too much battery than wi-fi. The difference is very distinct. I can ge 6-7 hours with wifi but 4-4,5 hours with 4,5g or 3g. In my country there's no 5G but I'm pretty sure every new G tech consumes more battery than the previous one.

2) If you're using whatsapp web and let it open in your browser, the app tries to synchronize any time. You can accept to use beta program to reduce for whatsapp web browser consumption.

3) Pokemon Go 's Adventure Sync is also a big juice consumer. Close it if it's not crucial for you.

My setup is:

Wifi - always on
Mobile - always on
Bluetooth - always on
Location - always on
Adaptive Display - on

I recently bought a S21 (Exynos) and I'm overall happy with it, but the battery life isn't too great.

I often use timers (when washing clothes, cooking, etc.) and discovered, that the stock Clock app (from Samsung) drains the battery when I'm using a timer. 4h of timer just running in the background lead to 8% battery usage. Do you guys also have this problem?

I'll try Google's clock now, but generally I want to stick to the stock app because of it's integration with Bixby.

EDIT: Okay, a reboot seems to have fixed the battery drain of the clock. Maybe there was just something weird going on.
